Getting started.

This section is all about preparing you mentally. Why run a marathon, anyway? We look at the mental and physical commitment you’ve made, and discuss what you’ve got ahead of you in the coming weeks and months.

Training

We go into in-depth detail on how to get from your current state to race-ready in a few short months – we believe 3 months is adequate with a good base fitness.

Shoes and gear

Have the correct shoes and running gear is fundamental for success. We break down every piece of gear you need to run a marathon, and all the optional extras too.

Nutrition

Fuel is what gets you round the race, but it comes in many different forms – and everyone’s stomach is different.

Pre-Marathon – the 4 weeks before the marathon

We explain where you focus should be at the following milestones – 4 weeks before the race,.

The Marathon

The actual marathon is the culmination of all your training in one event. Here we go through what to expect on the day itself – this section contains a lot of advice and tips from experienced marathon runners rather than science and deconstruction.

Post-Race

What to expect, how to minimise recovery time – and how to retain your new level of distance running ability.
